The Engineering School of Sustainable Infrastructure & Environment (ESSIE) continues to improve and advance sustainability through a nexus of the civil, coastal, environmental and oceanographic programs.

ESSIE is comprised of the Department of Civil and Coastal Engineering and the Department of Environmental Engineering Sciences.

The School offers comprehensive, innovative undergraduate and graduate programs. Instilling excellence in research, leadership, innovation, and entrepreneurship are ESSIE’s highest priorities. A growing number of undergraduate and graduate students participate in a college-wide initiative

to associate training in entrepreneurship, innovation, and leadership skills in engineering.

ESSIE is uniquely prominent in its ability to address the new research on coastal, environmental, infrastructure and community needs. No other institution offers a suite of academic and research programs or synthesizes and combines all of the unique qualifications.
